Mortis only looked evenly at Orthar.
"You think I don't have the conviction?" he asked neutrally.
"I don't think, I know," Orthar answered. "Just like every living being in this world, I am your designer, and I can see through all your Laws."
If anyone else had said that, Mortis would only despise their arrogance, but this was Orthar.
Orthar was the literal creator of this entire Cosmos and everything in it.
So, Mortis actually started to doubt his own conviction at this moment.
"However, do not misunderstand," Orthar said with a more relaxed tone. "Your conviction has already become stronger than it has been previously."
Orthar gestured to the hall.
"As you both know, I need more Energy and power to resist your father. If I relax for even a moment, he will drain my Cosmos. Your father doesn't pull the Energy out of the Primordial Chaos like my Cosmos but directly from my Cosmos."
